Beginning with Sunday’s print edition, readers of the Rockford Register Star once again will receive a weekly magazine-style guide to television programming.

We discontinued the print TV “book” some years, as did many of our newspaper industry peers, though an online version remained available.

We’re restoring the print version because of its enduring popularity with many longtime readers of the Register Star.

Because readers now will have a thorough weekly guide, over the next few days we’ll be slimming down the daily TV listings to focus on primetime highlights, which will be attractively packaged in the same location behind the sports section that the listings appear now.
